I'm no expert on tyre construction but from what I understood the inside of the stiffened sidewall can be gouged by the machine as the tyre is removed. Normal tyres give but run flats don't.

It makes sense as the official line on run flats is that if it's punctured you get to where you need to be and then throw it away.
